Patented May 22, 1934 UNITED /S,TA-TES PATENT OFFICE 14 Claims. (01.312-38) This invention relates to towel cabinets, and more particularlyto cabinets from which a rolled strip of toweling is adapted to bedelivered by uniform advances.

It is an objectionable feature of cabinets of this character now in usethat the user may be wasteful of the towel, even although an automaticstop may act to limit the portion of toweling delivered responsive to acontinuous pull. That is to say. the user may immediately under presentconditions repeat as often as he pleases the operation of advancing thetowel a definite distance, and the automatic stop is not effective toprevent a wasteful delivery of the toweling through such repetitiveoperation of the feed mechanism.

An object of the present invention, therefore,

is to not only limit the portion of toweling discharged from the cabinetthrough a complete.

single operation of the feed mechanism, but to further prevent anyrepeated feed operation until there has elapsed a predetermined intervalof time suflicient for use of the exposed unit More specificallyexpressed, the invention seeks to prevent-wasteful feeding of towelingfrom a cabinet by associating with an automatic stop, taking effect uponthe delivery of a unit length of toweling, of'means for so retarding therelease movement of the stop member that there can be no immediaterepetition of the feeding operation.

Another object is to make an improved pro-1".

metal construction, the front of said casing being formed by a door 2,hinged as indicated 90 vision for preventing any contact .within thecabinet between .the clean and soiled tow'eling, and to thus avoid anypossibility of contamination of the former by the latter.

Still another object is to facilitate loading and unloading of thecabinet by provision of a simple means for throwing the automatic stopcompletely out of operation, so that the towel may be fed freely andcontinuously from either of its carrying rollers to the other.

A further object is to adapt two rollers respectively, having'drivenengagement with clean and soiled portions of a strip of toweling toengage oppositeffaces of said strip so as to minimize the resulting wearupon each of said faces. These and various other objects the inventionattains by the construction hereinafter described, and illustrated inthe accompanying,

Figure 12 is a detailed view on the line 1212 86 of- Figure 8. In theseviews, the reference character 1 designates a casing which; as shown, isof sheet at 3. Rollers 4 and 5 for respectively carrying a clean portion6 and a used portion '7, of a strip of toweling, are mountedrespectively in the lower and upper portions of the casing, projectingjournal pins 8 being carried by the end portions of said rollers; Theclean towel roller has its journal pins engaging in grooves 9 formed ina pair of stamped sheet metal mountings lowhich are welded or otherwisesuitably secured in an opposed relation to the end walls of the casing,in the lower portion of the latter. The grooves 9 have vertical upperportions and their lower portions incline downwardly toward the rear ofthe cabinet. The journal pins 8 are adapted to be inserted in the openupper 106.

ends of the grooves, and the roll 6 of clean toweling rests upon aroller 11 mounted justbelow the mountings 10. Thus as the size of theroll 6 is diminished, the pins 8 are free to descend further in saidgrooves. The journal no pins 12 of the roller 11 engage bearings 13suitably carried by the casing end walls.

The mountings 13a for the soiled towel roller 7 are also preferablyformed of sheet metal, each comprising a horizontal upper portion and aportion extending downwardly at a slight rearward inclination from therear end of said upper portion. A groove 13b extends continuously inboth of said portions of each mounting,

and is open at the front end of the mounting to admit the journal pins130. Said groove may also be open at the lower end of the mounting.Preferably the lower wall of the groove 13b of each upper mounting isdepressed as indicated at 14 adjacent to the front end of said mountingto form a half bearing. The journal pins of the soiled towel roller maytemporarily rest in the depressions 14 while the end of a clean towel isbeing connected to said roller or while an attendant is spinning saidroller to complete the winding thereon of a towel preliminary to removalof said towel In the position of use of the soiled towel roller, itsjournal pins 13c engage in the downwardly extending portions of thegrooves 131), said pins and the roller 5 being supported by the roll 7of soiled toweling which in turn rests upon and is adapted to be drivenby a roller 15 formed preferably of wood and having a pair of journalpins 16 and 16a, the former engaging a bearing 17 on one end wall of thecasing and the latter passing through the opposite end wall. A drivemeans for the roll 15 will presently be described. As the roll 7gradually increases in diameter, said roll is raised through its contactwith the roller 15, and the journal pins 130 are correspondingly raisedin the grooves 13b. The peripheral face of the roller 15 may be facedwith sand paper or otherwise roughened to adapt it for drivingengagement with the roll of soiled toweling.

The clean towel strip extends from the roll 6 into driving. engagementwith a roller 18 mounted above said roll, and provided with journal pins19 and 19a, the former engaging a bearing 20 on one of the casing endwalls and the other projecting through the opposite wall. For a purposehereinafter explained, it is preferred to let the diameter of the roller18 slightly exceed that of the roller 15. The roller .18 is formedpreferably of wood and has its peripheral face sanded or otherwiseroughened to adapt it to be driven by the strip of towel. Just in frontof said roller is arranged a somewhat smaller roller 21 preferablythickly faced with rubber or like yielding material, and journaled in a.pair of short arms or links 22 which are pivoted to swing upon a rod 23extending between the casing end walls. The strip of clean toweling,after extending partially around the roller 18, passes. between thelatter and the roller 21, and is then extended over the latter roller.Leaving the latter roller at the front thereof, said strip extendsdownwardly between the roll 6" and the door 2 and passes out of thecasing through the bottom thereof. Below the casing the towel hangs, inthe form of a loop 24, exposing sufficient clean toweling to serve foran ordinary single use. Extending from the rear portion of said loop(which portion is generally damp and soiled) the towel strip returnsinto the casing through the bottom thereof passing upwardly to thesoiled towel roll 7 between the roll 6 and the rear casing wall.

It is desirable to so protect the clean towel roll and that portion ofthe strip unwinding therefrom as to prevent any possible contaminationof said roll and unwinding strip by the returning soiled length oftoweling. It is further desirable to prevent any dirt or the like thatmay be carried by the soiled toweling from falling upon the clean towelroll or the stripleaving said roll- These results are accomplished bythe provision of a guard member or partition 25, formed pref it at itslateral edges with flanges 26 which are welded or otherwise secured tothe casing end walls. Preferably a member 2'7 partially closing thebottom of the casing is formed integrally.

with said partition, and is sufliciently spaced, as indicated at 28,from the door.2 (in the closed position of the latter) to allow forthe,downward passage of the clean toweling, being spaced to a greaterextent from the rear casing wall as indicated at 29 so that, in loadingthe cabinet,

a free end of the toweling may be readily passed upwardly through theopening 29, between said partition and the rear casing wall. Byreference to Figure 2, it will be seen that the partition 25 togetherwith the bottom member 27 forms substantially a separate compartmentwithin the casing to receive the clean towel roll and the roller 18driven by the clean towel strip.

To subject the soiled portion 'of the towel strip to a drag such as willtend to avoid its winding to loosely in forming the roll 7, it ispreferred to maintain contact between said portion and the partition 25.As is best seen in Figure 2, the strip makes such a contact with a rib33 formed by, said partition approximately midway of its height. Thusthe strip is spaced from the partition except where it contacts withsaid rib, and drying of the strip is not appreciably retarded by thepartition.

To an end wall of the casing 1, there is secured exteriorly a relativelysmall housing or cover member 34, formed preferably of sheet metal,within which a gear train 35, 36, 37, 38, establishes a drive from theroller 18 to the roller 15. Said housing further receives a means forestablishing a unit delivery length of clean towelingand forautomatically limiting delivery to said unit length, responsive to apull on the exposed portion of toweling 24. Also there is arranged insaid housing a means for effecting a retarded release of the limitingmeans, so that repeated pulls on the exposed loop are ineffective untila definite time has elapsed. Thus the journal pin 19a of the roller 18projects into said housing and rigidly carries therein a disc 39 havingon its outer face a pin 40 and a lug 41 circumferentially spaced anddifferentially spaced from the disc center, the outward extent of thepin 40 exceeding that of the lug 41.

Associated with this disc is a plunger 42 which projects downwardly froma-dash-pot cylinder 43 arranged substantially above said disc andnormally occupying the vertical position shown in Figure 3. Said plungeris slidable in the lower head 44 of said cylinder and its portionengaging said head is of rectangular cross-section, as shown in Figure6, thus restraining the plunger from rotationv about its longitudinalaxis.

Within the cylinder a piston is fast upon the upper end of said rod,said piston, as best seen in Figure 5, comprising a cup leather 45having an upwardly flanged margin and a follower disc 46, which ismarginally grooved as indicated at 47 to provide for an upflow of air(or other fluid). A coiled spring 4711 is compressed within the cylinder43 between said piston and the lower cylinder head whereby the piston isurged to its uppermost limiting position. The end portion oi the plungercarrying said piston is reduced as indicated at 48, and extendssufiiciently above the cup leather to carry a collar 49 preventing anycontact of the cup leather with the upper cylinder head 50. Said headhas a central upward-projection 51 formed witha tapped bore 52 receivingan adjusting screw 53, which controls the exit of air from said borethrough a restricted port 54 opening in the side of said projection andwhich thereby controls the escape of such air from the cylinder througha passage 55 downwardly extending from said base. 55 designates a locknut carried by the screw 53 and bearing upon the projection 51 tomaintain adjustment of the screw.

The cylinder 43 is pivotally mounted to swing about its upper endbetween the positions indicated respectively in Figures 3 and i. Thismounting is established in the illustrated embodiment of the inventionby extending alug 5'7 laterally from the head and pivoting said lug, asat 55, upon an car 59 projecting from a bracket 60 secured to the casingend wall. A coiled spring 61, one end of which engages the lowercylinder head 4A normally maintains the vertical position of thecylinder, this position being established by the engagement of a projec:tion 62airorn an arm 62 uponthe head d4. with a lug 63 projectingoutwardly from the lower end of the bracket 60.

The lower portion of the plunger 42 is spaced from the outer race of thedisc 39 and terminally rigidly carries a head 5% upon its side adjacentto said face. The manner in which the plunger co-acts with the disc 39and its projections, to and ll will be hereinafter explained.

"When the plunger 42 and the dash-pot carrying said plunger are swung toone side or the disc, as Figure 4 illustrates, n'o restraint isexercised upon travel oi the towel strip. As a provision forestablishing and maintaining this inefiective position, a smallrock-shaft 65 is journaled in a bearing 55 passing through the casingend wall, as shown in Figure 5. As shown, this bearing is an integralportion of the bracket 66. Within the casing said shaft rigidly carriesan actuating lever 57, and within the housing 34 a short arm 68, fastupon said shaft, has upon its free end a crank pin 69 projectingoutwardly from the casing end wall and functioning as an anchorage forthe fOT-a ward end of the spring '61. The shaft 65, lever 67, arm 68,and crank-pin 69 may all be formed from a single length of material, asshown. When the dash-pot is in its working position, (see Figure 3) thelever 6'7 projects rearwardly and the spring dl extends below theextended axis of the rock-shaft 65, tending consequently to maintain thearm 68 downwardly inclined, and bearing against the lug 63. To shift thedash-pot to its ineflective position, the attendant swings the lever 67downwardly and forwardly through approximately one hundred and' eightydegrees, whereby the crank pin 69 acts through the arm 62 upon thedash-pot to swing the latter rearwardly; to the position shown in Figure4, in which position, as will presently appear, it has no eflect ontravel of the towel strip. It is to be noted that when the plunger 42and the dash-pot carrying the same are thus swung to an ineffectiveposition the lever 67' projects far enough forwardly to interfere withclosing of the cabinet door by engagement with a bracket 6741. on saiddoor. This eliminates the possibility of the cabinet being closed afterloading without a return of the plunger and dash-pot to their positionof use. A plate '70, secured to the casing end wall by rivets 71 orother suitable means, journals the outer ends of the various journalpins and stub shafts which lie within the housing 34 and maintains theproper proximity of the lower portion of the plunger 42 to the disc 39.Also a lug '72 upstanding from a said plate pivotally mounts a pawl 73which engages the teeth of the gear 38 and thus opposes any effortexerted to unwind the soiled toweling from the roll 7. (SeeFigures 3 andi.)

In the use or the described towel mechanism, a rolled strip of cleantoweling is first mounted upon the roller 4 and the free end of saidstrip is passed upwardly between the rollers 18 and 21, the latter atthis time being preferably swung to the dash line position indicated inFigure 2 so as to provide ample space between the rollers 18 and 21 fora free passage of the towel strip. Said strip is then extendeddownwardly in front of the clean towel roll, and the roller 21 is swungback to its normal position of use. A quantity of toweling is now drawnfrom. the roll 6 sufilcient to form a suitable loop below the cabinetand permit the strip to be returned into the cabinet between the backthereof and the partition 25. It will be noted that the attendant mayreach down into the cabinet between the upper portion of the partition25 and the rollers 15 and 5 to grasp the free end of the strip as thelatter is extended upwardly rearwardly of said partition. Finally thefree end portion or the strip is attached in any suitable manner to thesoiled towel roller 5. Any suitable provision (not shown) may be madefor locking the door 2 of the cabinet after loading the same, as

described. I

Users of the towel will grasp the front portion of the depending loop 24and exert a downward 'pull thereupon to deliver from the cabinet a cleanportion of the toweling and such pull,

acting downwardly upon the roller 21, will tend to swing said rollerabout the pivotal axis established by the rod 23 causing said roller topress the towel strip firmly against the roller 18. The latterconsequently is driven by the towel strip as the latter is withdrawnfrom the cabinet, and the rotative advance of said roller 18 has asubstantially definite relation to the length of towel withdrawn.

Since the roller 17 rotatively drives the roll '7 of soiled toweling andis itself driven through the gearing 35, 36, 3'7, 38 from the roller 18,it follows that the soiled toweling will be taken up upon the roll 7 atsubstantially the same rate that it is delivered from the roll 6. Thefact, however, that the roll 15 is of a diameter slightly less than thatof the roller 18 causes the taking up of the. soiled toweling to lagveryslightly the delivery of the clean toweling, this being Discussing nowthe provision for establishing a substantially definite limit as to theamount of toweling which may be withdrawn at a single operation, it. isto be understood that the disc 39 will be rotatively advanced by theroller 13 proportionately to the length of toweli withdrawn. As thewithdrawal operation beg s, the

'pin 40 lies against the plunger 42 just above the plunger head 64, asshown in Figure 8; and as the disc 39 is driven, said pin'bears uponsaid head to eifect a downward stroke of the plunger, incidentallyswinging the latter at the same time slightly about the pivot 58 againstthe tension of spring 61, as shown in Figure 9. Said stroke terminateswhen the plunger reaches the dash position shown in Figure 10, andeffects compression of the coiled spring 47a. When the plunger reachesthis limiting position the pin 40 rides clear of the head 64 leaving theplunger free for retraction by the action of the. plunger spring 470..The disc 39 continues to rotate,' responsive to the pull on the towel,until it has returned to its initial position in which the pin 40 againencounters the front edge of the plunger 42, as shown in Figure 11.

During movement of the pin 40 from the position shown in Figure 10 tothat shown in Figure 11, the plunger head 64 will be moved upwardly intothe path of the lug 41, which willcause the lug to engage the head 64 atabout the time that the pin 40 engages the front edge of the plunger, asshown in Figure 11. Such engagement of the pin 40 and lug 41 with theplunger 42 and head 64, respectively, will positively interrupt furtherrotation of the disk 39, and the latter will be retained in such lockedposition until the plunger head 64 reaches its normal starting position,shown in Figure 8.

By reference to Figure 12, it will be noted that the spacing of theplunger from the outer face of the disk 39, permits passage of the lug41 therebetween, so that the lug 41 will not engage, the plunger 42, butwill, engage the head 64:, secured to the lower end thereof. Thus, itwill be seen that when the lug 41is engaged with the back of the head64, as shown in Figure 11, it co-acts with the pin 40 to prohibitcontinued rotation of the disk 39 and, consequently, reacts through theroller 18 upon the towel strip, to prohibit further withdrawal of thetowel from the cabinet. Thus it is evident that no further withdrawal ofthe clean toweling may occur until the plunger 42 has been returned tothe normal raised position in which the head 64 is clear of the lug 41.Such a retraction of the plunger. is as hereinbefore stated,accomplished by the coiledspring 47a, but the dash-pot, comprised by thecylinder 43 and the piston 454S, produces a predetermined retardation ofthe retractive travel. That is to say, the air which during the downwardactuation of the plunger flowed upwardly past the piston 45, 46 to fillthe space above said pistonmust be displaced from said cylinder topermit the piston and plunger to assume their raised positions. The port54 through which such air is required to escape is so restricted by theadjustable screw 53 that a predetermined time is required for suchescape. This regulation is such that ample t:' me is afforded for use ofa length of toweling just ejected before the piston and plunger reachtheir raised positions. As this. position is established, the plungerhead 64 rises clear of the lug 41 and arepetitio'n of the'describedoperation may occur.

The pawl 73 circumvents any attempt that may be made to withdrawingsoiled toweling from the cabinet through a pull exerted upon the rearportion of the loop 24.

As compared to cabinets now in use, the described constructionaccomplishes an important saving through its positive prevention ofseveral feed operations immediately following one another.

Furthermore, the described construction effects a desirable saving ofthe attendants time by permitting a loading or unloading operationwithout hindrance by the automatic detent mechanism comprised by thedisc 39 and plunger 42. That is to say, the attendant, by manipulationof the lever 67 may shift the dash-pot and said plunger to the dash lineposition illustrated in Figure 4 in which said parts have no co-actionwith or retarding effect upon the disc 39.
